  1. 1. Role of MKP-2 in crosstalk between MAPK pathways

    University essay from Uppsala universitet/Institutionen för biologisk grundutbildning; Uppsala universitet/Ludwiginstitutet för cancerforskning

    Author : Mikaela Åhlin; [2015]
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : Abnormalities in Mitogen Activated Protein Kinase (MAPK) signalling may affect the cells essential processes and influence the cell in acquiring traits to favour tumorigenic transformation and the progression of cancer. Deregulation of the MAPK pathways and uncontrolled crosstalk occurring in cancers may be caused by deregulation by MAP-kinase phosphatases (MKPs) that negatively regulates MAPKs by dephosphorylation.

  2. 2. Identification of PHPT1 in mouse tissues by immunohistochemistry

    University essay from Institutionen för medicinsk biokemi och mikrobiologi

    Author : Muntaha Koria; [2007]
    Keywords : Phosphohistidine; dephosphorylation; protein histidine phosphatase; phosphohistidine phosphatase; protein phosphorylation;

    Abstract : Although it has been estimated that protein histidine phosphorylation account for about 6 % of the protein phosphorylation in eukaryotic cells; the knowledge of histidine phosphorylation and dephosphorylation is still limited. Lately, studies have appeared of a mammalian 14-kDa phospho- histidine phosphatase, also named protein histidine phosphatase and molecular cloning have provided some information of its physiological role.
